Viewpoints radio interview with host Donell Edwards, featuring Julie Owens and Barry Goldstein, both of whom are ardent advocates for victims of domestic violence. This program is a powerful expose with revelations from a new study that reveals how many family and civil courts charged with the duty to make formal judgments or decisions about child custody, that there is gender inequality in our legal system, and that men’s violence in the family is often rendered invisible by family court practices.

During this hour, a survivor of domestic violence also shares her experience: how the courts responded in a manner similar to what is described in the new study about gender inequality in the legal system, and the impact those actions had on her and her children.
